What is a Gifted & Talented Individualized Tutoring
Program?
If you have specific individual requests or concerns, this is an ideal
program that caters directly to the needs of your child on a one-one basis. We
can either arrange for a full-time staff member to be assigned to a student
throughout the program, or we can integrate a student into a small group. You
will be given individual time with staff members before the program starts to
develop an ideal program. After registering, please fill out the online
questionnaire.
Individualized programs are our most personal form of teaching. Students and
teachers work one-on-one on their subject of choice. This type of study produces
rapid results, especially in foreign languages, math, and writing.
Teachers tailor material to each student's needs, and are receptive to
feedback from parents. Those in individualized tutoring programs normally work
one-on-one, but sometimes if two students at the same center are interested in
learning the same subject (such as a foreign language), a small group may be
formed to facilitate three-way conversations.
Below you will find descriptions for the following
programs:
Academic Subjects
Enrichment Centers' tutors work one-on-one with students,
ensuring they receive exciting, stimulating, and challenging lessons. Tutors can
review school subjects, give a head start on next year’s work, and provide
inspiration and real-life applications for schoolwork.
Language
Tutoring
Enrichment Centers' tutors work one-on-one with
students, ensuring they receive exciting, stimulating, and challenging lessons.
Tutors can teach every level of language, providing a complete immersion
experience. Learn to speak, read, or write; whichever you prefer! We offer a
great number of languages.
Test Prep
Our teachers work one-on-one with students to prepare
them for tests such as the SSAT, PSAT, SAT, SAT II, AP, IB, GRE, MCAT, LSAT, and
more! We first identify a student's strengths and weaknesses, then customize a
plan to shore up weak areas while emphasizing talents. Students work under
simulated test conditions and receive constructive feedback on essay portions.
Test-taking skills and strategies are emphasized in addition to relevant subject
material.
College
Prep
Nervous about the college application process? Our College Prep Program can help! We
work one-on-one with students to deal with the entire college admissions
process, from the initial college search, to crafting an Ivy-League-quality
admissions essay. Additionally, if a student needs to boost SAT or ACT scores,
we can also provide individualized tutoring for the math, verbal and/or writing
sections. The College Prep-program is adaptable for all enrolled regardless of
grade in school. College transfer students are also welcome to take part in this
program.
Special
Needs
Children with developmental and learning disabilities,
special talents, or special needs often require individualized attention and
nurturing. This program offers a warm, supportive learning environment with a
uniquely-designed curriculum for each student. A balanced approach emphasizes
stimulating and challenging academics as well as extracurricular activities. Our
specially-trained staff members work with children on an individual basis,
giving each student the attention he or she requires. This one-on-one
relationship allows the child to develop special talents and build self-esteem.
Parents can also request that their children work in groups for social
experience.
